That is something bad at our industry. Managers or whoever do that decision believes that being senior automagically makes you a genious, when it can be the other way around, the more senior you are, the more averse to change you are. I doubt that senior could easily change to remote lifestyle after years of onsite.
People must learn that anyone can be remote, the thing is that everyone must agree to communicate better instead of more.
- TeMPOraL 8y ago> the more senior you are, the more averse to change you are. I doubt that senior could easily change to remote lifestyle after years of onsite. Why not? Going from on-site to remote is strictly easier, as the only thing it needs is to stop leaving home every morning. I don't get this "the more senior you are, the more averse to change you are" - the only thing I've seen is older people having higher expectations and less tolerance for abuse and working for pie-in-the-sky promises of future wealth. But maybe my bias is showing, I'm nearing 30, so pretty old by software industry standards.
- IOT_Apprentice 8y agoLOL. What makes someone senior? What are the advantages that being senior brings to the job at hand? Should we all be non-senior instead so that we have no experience or skills formed? Change is a part of life. You are going to get older and then die. Too often, technology firms worship youth at the expense of experience. In any case, youth ages and then it is your turn in the box, being lectured by the next generation about how averse to change YOU are. sigh.
